This is where you can create a script to monitor intel_backlight and write the
value out to, e.g. /usr/local/share/${USER}-backlight

cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness >
/usr/local/share/${USER}-backlight

Then simply create another script (linked within ~/.trinity/Autostart) that
will restore the brightness level on trinity startup, e.g.

#!/bin/sh

savedbl="/usr/local/share/${USER}-backlight"
sysfile="/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness"

if [ -s "$savedbl" ]   ## if saved backlight file exists
then
    sudo sh -c "cat '"$savedbl"' > '"$sysfile"'"  ## restore saved backlight
fi

(just make sure the file is executable and that you have sudo privileges)
